SDM

The ultimate NDI® experience integrated.

Built upon Intel® SDM platform the BirdDog SDM Family will revolutionise the way content is distributed to even the largest installations. Simply install the SDM module inside an SDM compatible flat panel display for the most integrated and scalable NDI® to screen solution available. No more wall boxes or patch panels, now the AV distribution is built directly into the display.

Controlled by the all in one BirdDog OS and with two BirdDog SDM modules to choose from, M1 and M2, there is a solution for every project. M1 is a full NDI Sender and Receiver based on the Intel SDM-L form factor and M2 is an NDI Receiver built on the Intel® SDM-S module. With support for resolutions all the way up to 4Kp60, there is also a RESTful API for programming completely automated spaces.
